Looks like it was turned into a button, cufflink or a pin. I think the initials are E.F.
I've only submitted once but it seemed clear to me that if the grade put the coin into a higher value tier, you'd be charged for that higher...
I didn't say it was ugly. "coolest pattern I've seen" in the title threw me off, that's all. I thought you were talking about a pattern coin.

@johnmilton I guess I never noticed this before, but the eagle is exactly the same as on the Flying Eagle cents. What's the connection? Longacre...
As stated earlier, the theory is that they caught the error quickly. Nobody ever said they only made two - they probably collected the mistakes...
"On 10c stock"?? I'm confused. A quarter is so much larger than a dime how can the obverse be so fully struck?
Oops, I missed or misinterpreted this. I guess it's already at NGC.
